Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 88 Huo Yuhao's Assassination Attempt
Looking at the mess in front of him, Huo Yuhao's lips twitched, and he muttered, "It seems we used too much ammunition. Sigh, it's my first time bombing people, and I have no experience. I wasted a Violent Rocket. With this power, five Pineapple Rockets plus one Explosive Rocket should have been enough to take them down."

Just then, a fiery red figure shot towards them from afar like a meteor, its speed leaving dozens of afterimages in the air.

"Who goes there! Have they lost their minds?! How dare they attack Shrek City!"

A fierce and wild voice rang out. Bathed in flames, Ma Xiaotao spread her phoenix wings like a fire goddess, her eyes filled with vigilance. She happened to be outside the city due to her unease and rushed over immediately upon hearing the explosion.

The explosion just now clearly showed a soul power fluctuation that exceeded the level of a seven-ring Soul Saint, and was even close to the level of an eight-ring Soul Douluo. Although Ma Xiaotao was wild, she did not rush forward before figuring out the situation.

"Sister Xiaotao, it's me." Huo Yuhao patted the dirt off his clothes and waved to the sky.

"Huh? Yuhao! What are you doing here? What's going on?"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Ma Xiaotao flashed down and landed quickly.

Huo Yuhao glanced at the scattered corpses and said nonchalantly, "Someone tried to kill me, but I blew them up."

Ma Xiaotao's beautiful eyes widened in surprise. She subconsciously looked around and suddenly felt a toothache. Weren't you just in the Treasure Pavilion? How did you get assassinated so suddenly?
And this scene, compared to your nonchalant description, seems... somewhat mismatched.
"You, you're not hurt, are you?" Ma Xiaotao unconsciously looked Huo Yuhao up and down.

Huo Yuhao put the equipment into his storage soul tool, turned around and looked around, then curled his lip in dissatisfaction and said, "My clothes are all dirty. Honestly, I just took a shower before I came out today, and I have to take another shower when I get back!"

Ma Xiaotao's lips twitched; she was almost stumped by Huo Yuhao. After a long pause, she continued, "What are the strengths of these people? Have you offended anyone recently?"

Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said, "Five Soul Kings and one Soul Emperor, I don't know who wants to kill me."

These people were most likely hired by Dai Huabin. Although Huo Yuhao had a feeling about it, he didn't have any evidence and it wasn't appropriate to bring it up now. It was better to stay in the shadows and have plenty of opportunities to deal with Dai Huabin later.

Ma Xiaotao's pupils shrank. Five Soul Kings and one Soul Emperor, and they actually killed Huo Yuhao without even breaking his skin.

He acted like nothing was wrong. When did this little guy become so terrifying!

While they were talking, seven or eight more streaks of light arrived, including the Shrek City defense forces, who finally arrived and sealed off the area.

Among those seven or eight were Yan Shaozhe and Elder Lin, the person in charge of Jubaoge.

"Shao Zhe, did you feel it?" Old Lin asked calmly with a slight smile.

Since Huo Yuhao was unharmed, they were relieved and began to observe the battlefield.

"Ultimate Ice, truly extraordinary," Yan Shaozhe stroked his beard, full of admiration. "He must have used the extreme ice's low temperature to launch a surprise attack, affecting the assassins' actions, before using the fixed-position soul-guided cannon to kill them." "Judging by its power, it should be a level six violent rocket, right? Fan Yu really puts a lot of effort into this disciple, actually entrusting a level six fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell to a 12-year-old child for self-defense."

At this point, Yan Shaozhe shook his head helplessly. You should know that level four and above fixed-mount soul-guided shells are already controlled items, let alone level six.

However, Huo Yuhao's identity is not ordinary after all. In addition, Elder Mu has spoken up. Based on his understanding of Huo Yuhao, he believes that this little guy will not recklessly use a level-six fixed-position soul-guided cannon to blow people up for fun. As the secret successor of the Sea God Pavilion Master, this privilege is just a small matter.

Old Lin chuckled, shook his head, and took one last look at the huge pit. As he walked away, he said leisurely, "Although Huo Yuhao is alright, someone has a lot of nerve, daring to mess with Shrek Academy. You'd better handle it."

Yan Shaozhe's heart tightened. He bowed in the direction where Elder Lin had left, then a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He said to someone beside him, "Take all the bodies back to the academy and find out at all costs who dared to mess with our people on Shrek's territory."

"Yes."

Seeing that the higher-ups had already taken charge, Huo Yuhao knew he didn't need to worry about it anymore. He stretched and turned to walk towards the academy.

"Let's go, let's go back, take a shower and go to sleep. I still need to change clothes, sigh."

Di Qianqiu glanced at the scattered corpses, then followed Huo Yuhao with a heavy heart. Having truly witnessed the power of the soul tool in battle, Beast's emotions were quite complicated at this moment.

"Hmm? Sister Xiaotao, is there anything else you need to take care of?" Huo Yuhao took a few steps and noticed that Ma Xiaotao was still standing there with her head down, so he asked in confusion.

"Yuhao, you've been helping me all these years, and today you're in danger, but I'm not by your side. If anything really happens to you, I..."

Ma Xiaotao raised her head slightly, and her pink eyes were surprisingly moist.

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. He went to Ma Xiaotao's side, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and his voice unconsciously softened: "Sister Xiaotao, no one can predict these things, so how can you blame yourself? Besides, I'm not the same Great Soul Master I was when I first met you a few years ago. Maybe in the future, you'll have to rely on me for protection, hehe."

Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Ma Xiaotao's eyes widened in surprise. He said he would protect me?
As the inner academy's renowned "fiery girl," no male student had ever dared to offer to protect her. With her own strength, she proudly believed she didn't need anyone's protection. However, Huo Yuhao's words today gave her a strange sense of security, along with a touch of warmth and emotion.
As the main figures of the attack left one after another, the defense forces began to clean up the mess, and Yan Shaozhe ordered his men to take away all the remains of the bodies.

There were no traces found on the corpse, confirming that the men were indeed sent by Dai Huabin. However, before intercepting Huo Yuhao, they had erased everything that could reveal their identities. This was not only to avoid causing trouble for Dai Huabin, but also to prevent drawing the ire of the White Tiger Duke!
Back at the academy, Huo Yuhao and Di Qianqiu were inevitably called in for questioning and registration. They didn't return to their dorm until the early morning, so Huo Yuhao's wish to take a shower and sleep naturally became a luxury.

In the end, although the college did not give a clear answer, it was clear that they had made some guesses.

Huo Yuhao didn't really care how the academy handled it. Anyway, Dai Huabin had already been added to his Death Note. He could just arrange a ticket for him to visit the Underworld when the opportunity arose.

If you dare to kill, be prepared to be killed!
